Definitions
- the invention relates to systems, a method and a computer program for transmitting data.
- routers for use with the end customer which select the cheapest telephone provider in each case depending on the time and possible duration of a telephone link which is to be set up.
- the router stores tariff tables which can be updated when required by downloading new tariff tables.
- the telecommunications provider has the problem that its networks are not utilized in optimum fashion on account of price information not being up to date or being too general. Unnecessary load peaks arise which necessitate additional hardware investment.
- a customer system for transmitting data for a customer from and/or to a provider system has a unit to transmit a transmission tender for the respective data which are currently to be transmitted.
- the transmission tender contains a transmission price.
- a provider system for transmitting data for a customer from and/or to a customer system has a unit to transmit a transmission tender for the respective data which are currently to be transmitted.
- the transmission tender contains a transmission price.
- customer system and provider system do not have to involve the customer or provider being the holder or owner of the respective system. Instead, it is adequate for the system to be used for the purposes of the customer or provider.
- the customer is a customer for the transmission of data
- the provider is a provider for the transmission of data.
- the transmission tender can be transmitted from the customer system to the provider system or from the provider system to the customer system.
- a transmission price is transmitted for the data which are to be transmitted.
- the transmission of a transmission price for the respective data which are to be transmitted makes pricing much more flexible and up to date both for the customer and for the provider, as a result of which the problems mentioned in the introduction are overcome.
- this allows a transmission price to be negotiated or allows transmission services and data which are to be transmitted to be “auctioned”.
- the system has, in particular, a unit to transmit a transmission acceptance which allow a previously received transmission tender to be accepted.
- the system can have means for acquiring a plurality of transmission tenders and also a unit to compare the transmission prices associated with these transmission tenders.
- the transmission price is set in the system, and, in particular, can be set by the system.
- the transmission price can be set by the system on the basis of one or more of the following criteria: transmission rate, volume of data, time of transmission, network utilization level and/or transmission path.
- the method for transmitting data between a customer system and a provider system is carried out such that at least one of the systems transmits to the other system a transmission tender for the respective data which are to be transmitted, the transmission tender containing a transmission price.
- this method is continued such that the transmission tender is accepted by the other system if the tendered transmission price is below a prescribed limit value.
- the tendered transmission price can be compared with transmission prices from other providers or customers.
- the transmission price is set by at least one of the systems on the basis of one or more of the following criteria: transmission rate, volume of data, time of transmission, network utilization level and/or transmission path.
- a computer program for a data processing installation which contains software code sections which can be used to carry out one of the outlined methods on the data processing installation can be executed by suitable implementation of the method in a programming language and translation into code which can be executed by the data processing installation.
- the software code sections are stored.
- a computer program is understood to mean the program as a tradable product. It can be in any form, for example distributed on paper, on a computer-readable data medium or over a network.
- FIG. 1 shows a provider system and a customer system.
- FIG. 1 shows a customer system 1 and a provider system 2 .
- the customer system 1 is connected to the provider system 2 via a data transmission link 3 .
- the data transmission link 3 can be a copper and/or glass-fiber cable and/or also an infrared and/or radio transmission link.
- the customer system has a unit 4 to transmit a transmission tender for the respective data which are to be transmitted, the transmission tender containing a transmission price.
- the transmission price is a transmission price for the data which are to be transmitted. It is a financial burden and not, for example, the price in a cost function, such as is used by different transmission algorithms in order to optimize the transmission performance.
- the provider system 2 likewise has a unit 5 to transmit a transmission tender for the respective data which are to be transmitted, the transmission tender containing a transmission price.
- the units 4 , 5 to transmit a transmission tender are simultaneously units to transmit a transmission acceptance, units to acquire a plurality of transmission tenders, units to compare the transmission prices associated with the transmission tenders and units to calculate a new transmission tender on the basis of a received transmission tender.
- the units 4 , 5 to transmit a transmission tender can be in the form of a processor in conjunction with a memory.
- the systems also include permanent to removable storage, such as magnetic and optical discs, RAM, ROM, etc. on which the process and data structures of the present invention can be stored and distributed.
- the processes can also be distributed via, for example, downloading over a network such as the internet.
- the memory stores the transmission price, which is set by the respective system 1 , 2 on the basis of one or more of the following criteria: transmission rate, volume of data, time of transmission, network utilization level and/or transmission path.
- a method for data transmission of data between the customer system and the provider system 2 involves at least one of the systems 1 , 2 transmitting to the other system 2 , 1 a transmission tender for the respective data which are to be transmitted.
- the transmission tender contains a transmission price.
- a common feature of all the embodiments is that, in the communication between customer system and provider system, price information is additionally transmitted which contains a transmission price which is acceptable to the customer or the provider for a link having the respectively indicated characteristics.
- the respective other system can then either accept, reject or can present a separate transmission tender.
- Negotiations take place and there is possibly an auction.
- the customer is thus able to communicate very cheaply, and the provider can attempt to utilize his network as optimally as possible and to weigh costs and receipts against one another more precisely.
- One aspect of the invention involves developing communication or transmission between the customer system and the provider system, as a result of which it is possible to use dynamic price models which allow additional criteria, such as transmission rate, volume of data, time of transmission, network utilization level and/or transmission path, to be included in pricing as well.
- the customer system can, in particular, also be in the form of a terminal in the form of a mobile communications unit (mobile telephone, personal organizer, smart phone, portable computer) or a PC.
- the provider system can, in particular, comprise a network.
